RECOMMENDED ACTION: Public Hearing to consider a Resolution approving the 2016-17
Annual Action Plan for the Community Development Block Grant

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Action Plan is the annual implementing document for the
2014-2018 Consolidated Plan and provides a detailed

as the City's CDBG budget and goals for the fiscal year.
2016-17 Funding Allocation
The City will receive $613,959 in CDBG funds for Fiscal Year 2016/17 from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The City Council has a policy of allocating 40 percent of the
annual CDBG award (net of administrative costs) to community-based organizations (CBOs), with the
remainder going to City projects. There is a 15 -percent Public Service Cap on the overall allocation for
2016-17.
The distribution of funds will be as follows:
City projects
$294,701
CBO projects
$196,467
Administration
$122.791 (20% of the. 2016-17 Annual allocation)
TOTAL

15% Service Cap $ 92,093
At the completion of an application period that ran from December 8, 2015 to February 10, 2016, the
City received a total of 10 applications from community-based organizations (CBO's) requesting a
total of $199,582. A detail of those CBO funding requests is attached as Exhibit A.
Using a combination of CDBG and other funding sources, the City's key objectives for the 2016
funding period include the following:
• Increase the supply of affordable housing;
• Improve the condition of the City's housing stock;
• Improve public facilities benefiting low-income areas and targeted low-income populations.
• Remove blighting influences in low-income areas;

Page 3 of 3
Special Projects/Activities
An additional element of the 2016-17 Annual Action Plan is for Council to continue to authorize the
City to pursue the following special project and/or activities to address priority needs identified in the
Consolidated Plan:
• Establish Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area (NRSA) — A tool for neighborhood
revitalization that provides benefits for administering CDBG funding in targeted areas,
encourages public and private investment in the community, and builds stronger relationships
with neighborhood stakeholders including residents, businesses, nonprofit organizations,
elected officials, law enforcement, and faith organizations that have a chance to find out that
their individual interests often coincide; and
The Community Development Department — Neighborhood Services Division has been engaged in a
community outreach effort for the past several months that utilizes the Asset -Based Community
Development (ABCD) methodology to identify community resources that can be supported and
expanded to address poverty. The results of this outreach effort and community survey will likely be
brought back to Council in September of 2016 for consideration in the establishment of the NRSA.
Public Comment Period
The draft Annual Action Plan document has been available for public review and comment since April
4, 2016. Aside from those offered at the Public Hearing on March 16, 2016, the only comments
received to date have been from the Lodi Improvement Committee (LIC), which voiced support for the
Annual Action Plan, especially the concept of establishing a Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy
Area.
Next Steps
The approved Annual Action Plan document must be submitted to HUD no later than May 15, 2016 in
order for the City to receive funding beginning July 1, 2016.
Staff will begin developing program guidelines for both the Housing Rehab/Emergency Repair
Program and the Down Payment Assistance Loan Program. Those guidelines will be brought back to
Council for review and adoption as quickly as possible so that we can begin marketing the programs.
FISCAL IMPACT: CDBG are federal funds. Capital improvements allow for maintenance
costs to be reduced. Administration costs are paid via a 20 -percent set-
aside of the grant funds.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: $613,959 — 2016-17 Community Development Block Grant allocation.
